How Green Is Yellow and Black?
When it comes to the new VCU student apartments and dorms being built on Canal Street, how much is energy efficiency being considered?
How does this compare with other universities?
Student life at Syracuse University can be comfortable as well as energy efficient. University Village Apartments includes five buildings and 120 apartments for students. The project, developed by Education Realty Trust on land leased from the university, achieved Gold certification under the LEED for Homes rating system. Each apartment in the project earned the Energy Star and each building received incentives under the New York State Energy Research and Development Agency (NYSERDA) Multifamily Performance program as its third Low Rise Pilot participant (see “Multifamily Performance Program”).

She has no id tags but is wearing a hot pink rhinestone collar and a flea collar. She is very sweet and a strictly indoor cat, she has never gotten out before. PLEASE return her!

Condolences to VCU Basketball Team Fans
No matter how you look at it, the VCU Basketball Team had an amazing season this year. Even if you were not a basketball fan before, you could instantly become one by watching these guys’ enthusiasm and skill. That goes for the University of Richmond’s team also. Despite VCU’s loss last night, they can be proud of their hard work and determination in getting to the Sweet Sixteen. In doing so, they brought pride and recognition to Richmond and we are thankful. I enjoyed watching the games, while hanging out with VCU alumni friends.
Note to Trani and Mayor Jones: This does not mean that Richmond taxpayers’ money should be spent on a new Coliseum.
